It matters for longer runs and higher speed. The twist provides noise cancellation effect

It matters that you do the pairs right. CC-B-AA-B-DD. It doesn’t matter which color is which, except to make it easier to get the ends to match.

I thought that you mean the color doesn't matter just that they match on the termination point, not as a pair. So you can have C with brown and green for example

That you cannot do. Or at least you’ll have a lot of connectivity problems if you do.

Which is why I said it matters for long run. A short cable run would still probably work even if suboptimal.

For certain values of “work” I suppose. You’ll get a link light, probably.
